Coherence in Information for Agricultural Research for Development (CIARD)
Availability: Information is stored in digital formats, with clearly defined copyright,
managed in one or more institutionally-owned, thematic or other repositories, built
and structured according to accepted international standards.
Accessibility: Information is openly accessible for all users, and easily located via the
Internet from outside the institution using tools and services adopted by the international
community.
Applicability: Research planning, implementation and communication are an inclusive
process bringing together all perspectives and knowledge. Research outputs and
messages are adapted for easy access, use and re-use by different stakeholders,
increasing the public benefits derived from the research.
Partners in the CIARD initiative have made a collective commitment
to promote the sharing of data, information, and knowledge in a
global network of truly public collections of information, based on a
Manifesto and a common set of Principles.
